AN ANCHOR IN THE STORM

David Wilkerson Today

FRIDAY, APRIL 22, 2011

“Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and
which entereth into that within the veil” (Hebrews 6:19).

The anchor referred to in this passage of Scripture is hope. Not the hope of
this wicked world, but the hope founded on God’s oath to keep, bless, govern
those who trust him.

This hope alone is our anchor in the storm falling on the earth at this present time. The writer of Hebrews admonished, “Be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises” (6:12).

God made an oath to the “heirs of promise” who are all those who are in
Christ. He made an oath in order to end all strive—all doubts—so that
“…we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold
upon the hope set before us” (6:18).

Here is our hope: GOD HAS SWORN TO FULFILL HIS PROMISES AND IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR GOD TO LIE.

He kept his word to Abraham—he will keep his word to you as you trust him. We need strong consolation in these times.

After all is said and done—and all the sermons have been preached on
hope—it comes down to this: Are we willing to commit all into his hands—rest in his Word—and stand without wavering in the love of God, fully
convinced his promises to you will be fulfilled?

You can take that kind of faith beyond the veil into the holiest!
